About this study

Official title: Reducing PM2.5 Exposure and Lung Cancer Risk Using Spatial Data Science (The Air Study)

This clinical trial will conduct an educational intervention to promote knowledge of and preventive health behaviors related to personal air pollution exposure. Air pollution is n ubiquitous environmental exposure that is associated with harmful health effects including lung cancer. The educational intervention is comprised of 2 educational videos that include information regarding air pollution, health effects, and personal preventive health behaviors to reduce air pollution exposure and the use of a wearable air pollution sensor. The knowledge gained from this study may inform future research that will be designed to promote awareness of air pollution and its health effects.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Changes in knowledge regarding air pollution

    Will calculate the proportion of the items that were answered correctly. McNemar's tests will be used to calculate differences in the proportion of participants answering air pollution knowledge items correctly at baseline and at week 5.

    Measured: At baseline and week 5

  2. Changes in air pollution preventive health behaviors

    Will calculate summary scores for air pollution preventive health behaviors and paired t-test to determine intervention effectiveness at baseline and at week 5.

    Measured: At baseline and week 5

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Changes in perceived barriers

    Summary scores for perceived barriers (guided by the Health Belief Model) will be calculated from participant questionnaire responses by summing the scores across the relevant scale. Paired t-tests will determine changes in perceived barriers at baseline and week 5.

    Measured: At baseline and week 5

  2. Changes in perceived benefits

    Summary scores for perceived benefits (guided by the Health Belief Model) will be calculated from participant questionnaire responses by summing the scores across the relevant scale. Paired t-tests will determine changes in perceived benefits at baseline and week 5.

    Measured: At baseline and week 5

  3. Changes in perceived susceptibility

    Summary scores for perceived susceptibility (guided by the Health Belief Model) will be calculated from participant questionnaire responses by summing the scores across the relevant scale. Paired t-tests will determine changes in perceived susceptibility at baseline and week 5.

    Measured: At baseline and week 5

  4. Changes in perceived severity

    Summary scores for perceived severity (guided by the Health Belief Model) will be calculated from participant questionnaire responses by summing the scores across the relevant scale. Paired t-tests will determine changes in perceived severity at baseline and week 5.

    Measured: At baseline and week 5

  5. Changes in self-efficacy

    Summary scores for self-efficacy (guided by the Health Belief Model) will be calculated from participant questionnaire responses by summing the scores across the relevant scale. Paired t-tests will determine changes in self-efficacy at baseline and week 5.

    Measured: At baseline and week 5

  6. Changes in cues to action

    Will calculate frequencies for each cue to action (guided by the Health Belief Model). McNemar's tests will be used to calculate differences in the proportion of participants regarding each cue to action at baseline and week 5.

    Measured: At baseline and week 5

  7. Changes in air pollutant levels measured using the Flow 2 personal air quality sensor

    Paired t-tests will determine changes in air pollutant levels at baseline and week 2 vs. week 4 and week 5.

    Measured: At baseline and week 2 vs. week 4 and week 5

  8. Intervention feasibility (accessibility)

    Will report descriptive statistics for intervention accessibility based on responses to the relevant questionnaire items at week 5.

    Measured: At week 5

  9. Intervention feasibility (acceptability)

    Will report descriptive statistics for intervention acceptability based on responses to the relevant questionnaire items at week 5.

    Measured: At week 5

  10. Intervention feasibility (demand)

    Will report descriptive statistics for intervention demand based on responses to the relevant questionnaire items at week 5.

    Measured: At week 5

  11. Intervention feasibility (uptake, sensor upload completion)

    Will report descriptive statistics the proportion of participants completing sensor uploads.

    Measured: At baseline through week 5

  12. Intervention feasibility (uptake, educational video viewing)

    Will report descriptive statistics for the proportion of viewing educational videos at week 3.

    Measured: At week 3

  13. Intervention feasibility (uptake, questionnaire completion)

    Will report descriptive statistics for the proportion of completing the questionnaires at baseline and week 5.

    Measured: At baseline and week 5

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Educational Intervention and Questionnaire Administration in people with Lung Carcinoma, run by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in knowledge regarding air pollution (time frame: At baseline and week 5). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Jul 2022.
